I guarantee that most British people have no idea who Curtis Yarvin, or Peter Thiel are.
I also guarantee that the ‘Zone Fever’ stealthily eclipsing the UK (which is backed by the duopoly) is a critical component of Yarvin and Thiel’s plans to dismantle democracy in the US, and the UK.

'Facts, alas, mean little in the so-called immigration debate, particularly when mainstream politicians respond to far-right advances by echoing their language and demonising migrants' www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Europe is a continent soaked in economic pessimism. Until we change that, the far right will rise and rise | Owen Jones

Sometimes when I complete reading a book by Adrian Tchaikovsky, I stop and ask myself: Is England okay? And it's a very silly question to ask myself because at that moment I've just completed reading an entire book in which Adrian Tchaikovsky explains to me that England is not okay
